5Antioch Retreat:
This weekend retreat is a high energy and spiritually rewarding experience that is led by our Young Adult Ministry. It is an extremely popular retreat weekend held right here at Presentation.  For the time being participants will spend the night at home and share meals together here at Church. Join us as we spend a weekend celebrating our relationships with God and each other! Contact: Youth Minister, Craig Johnson, ext. 819, cjohnson@churchofpresentation.org

Discipleship Weekend Retreat: 
Our Discipleship Retreat is offered in the Fall each year and is run by a Trained Team of Peer leaders who are Juniors and Seniors in High School.  This peer-led retreat is usually attended by over 150 teens and young adult chaperones and is full of inspiring witness talks, great discussions, games, music, prayer and much more! It is held right here at Presentation, and the teens go home to sleep in the evening. It is a wonderful way to “retreat” from the stresses of everyday life. All high school students are welcome to attend!  Juniors and Seniors who have made a retreat before can apply to be a part of the Peer Ministry Team. Contact Craig Johnson, ext. 819,  cjohnson@churchofpresentation.org
